About this title

Review:

"Sandford knows all there is to know about detonating the gut level shocks of a good thriller."

From the Back Cover:

HE TOOK AN OBSIDIAN KNIFE FROM HIS POCKET. SEVEN INCHES OF BEAUTIFULLY CRAFTED BLACK VOLCANIC GLASS, AS SHARP AS A SURGEON'S SCALPEL. WITH A SINGLE POWERFUL SLASH, HE CUT FROM EAR TO EAR

An orchestrated series of ritual killings has shocked the nation. Partnered by New York Police officer Lily Rothenburg, Detective Lucas Davenport will need all the tricks he has learnt on the streets of Minneapolis as he searches through the shadows and mysteries of the American Indian community, trying to track down the obsessed minds behind the bloody vengeance killings – before the team of killers finally goes out of control.

”John Sandford is a brilliant writer.”
THE GUARDIAN

"A cracking sequel to 'Rules of Prey'. Vigorous erotic and violent action... ice-pick chills. A double-pumped roundhouse of a thriller"
KIRKUS REVIEWS

"Davenport, one of the most engaging and iconoclastic characters in contemporary fiction, is back and in rare form... unbeatable."
DETROIT NEWS

"Spare, bitter, harsh... the pace is relentless. A classic."
